[OSM-talk-ie] Eircode Next steps?
The new postcode system was launched today. https://finder.eircode.ie Rather than discussing the pros and cons, can we look at OSM's next steps? Also have a look at the location finding resources added by the interactive maps etc. Can we use any of these to our benefit? ___ Talk-ie mailing list Talk-ie@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ie

We store counties as separate objects, people can use that if they need to calculate the county for a point/address, right? https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/pull/2729 Rory -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJVo86QAAoJEOrWdmeZivv2R4QH/36QEsev2KQAohD39EjY2Mzr N0pl9qHI7bW+o6ZqTnjtH+YHEWtoT/jNpYJBqvVpVtVk2FoNW7R9tuSMzLWyLfPa 3oDW7+YI2u02nPYfvM6ZWaP1VgQaCEjXoZKJPxUTpb+xf5aB/1stV8EnHib8Ax3v dqcmYn2Gsnk5fGSsRbjH+5iHaaWHn61OElfHk5+5HxESmyFkDEzbtgomfluFnMgZ h0j07ly69LfePxRFRjOVEekBZxAzom3rbw3eTWkfaskyePcwfGEfZbf5Jgz0i6f8 3NbymchIItBy7KCkMdPbXVqGOjTNEfF/KL/Ts3y1EfiOizivWbRNWNf5tQ04w48= =M/TT -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Talk-ie mailing list Talk-ie@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ie
[OSM-talk-ie] Consolidating address fields
Hi, The following tags are currently used for addresses. Even with the, eh, variation :) available in Irish addresses, I think there could be some consolidation. Current tags in use: name=* (building, business, etc.) addr:name=* addr:housename=* addr:housename:en=* addr:housename:ga=* addr:housename:it=* addr:housename:source=* addr:housenumber=* addr:housenumber:source=* addr:unit=* addr:apartments=* addr:flats=* addr:floor=* addr:terracename=* addr:street:en=* addr:street:ga=* addr:hamlet=* addr:subdistrict=* addr:district=* addr:place=* addr:suburb=* addr:townland=* addr:postal_district=* addr:postcode:loc8=* addr:village=* addr:town=* addr:city=* addr:city:ga=* addr:county=* addr:county:ga=* addr:province=* addr:country=* addr:inclusion=* addr:interpolation=* I've partially consolidated the following: addr:full=* I've fully consolidated the following: addr:door=* addr:coounty=* addr:terrace=* See http://stat.latlon.org/ie/latest/tags-a.html for the stats. The site doesn't track name=* name:en=* addr:housenumber=* addr:street=* -- Separately, addr:city=* has the following issue (aside from villages with six pubs and one shop being labelled cities. ;) Number of entries - entry - issue 6 - Dun Laoghaire - Add fada to “Dun” 360 - Dublin 1 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 6 - Dublin 10 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 148 - Dublin 11 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 161 - Dublin 12 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 1 - Dublin 13 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 3 - Dublin 14 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 12 - Dublin 15 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 19 - Dublin 16 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 7 - Dublin 17 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 5 - Dublin 18 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 551 - Dublin 2 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 16 - Dublin 20 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 3 - Dublin 24 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 104 - Dublin 3 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 43 - Dublin 4 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 41 - Dublin 5 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 852 - Dublin 6 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 223 - Dublin 6W - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 164 - Dublin 7 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 439 - Dublin 8 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 101 - Dublin 9 - Change to addr:postal_district=*; add addr:city=Dublin 10 - Castlerea - Check spellings 1 - Castlereagh - Check spellings 13 - Tobercurry - Check spellings 359 - Tubbercurry - Check spellings 1 - Burren, Warrenpoint - Double-barrelled name – simplify 2 - Corballis, Donabate - Double-barrelled name – simplify 1 - Cork City - Double-barrelled name – simplify 1 - Rathnure, Enniscorthy - Double-barrelled name – simplify 20 - Skibbereen, county Cork - Double-barrelled name – simplify 12 - Dublin Airport - Is this appropriate for a addr:city=*? 1 - Dublin Airport Logistics Park - Is this appropriate for a addr:city=*? 1 - Fota Wildlife Park - Is this appropriate for a addr:city=*? 1 - Lough Arrow - Is this appropriate for a addr:city=*? 5 - Sandyford Industrial Estate - Is this appropriate for a addr:city=*? 1 - Stillorgan Industrial Park - Is this appropriate for a addr:city=*? 1 - Donegal Town - Should “Town” be deleted? 10 - Leitrim Village - Should “Village” be deleted?

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Submission by OSM Ireland to the public consultation on Ireland's Open Data Initiative
Hi all, So there has been a great response to this, with close to 70 suggestions for improvements, so thank you all for giving your time to this, it is greatly appreciated. I have opened the document now for people to add their names under the authors field on the front page. It will stay open for a day or so, I have to submit it on Wednesday. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bR9KwaP9IgBpVm_btn8EOa0j3rIe2SPcQjosmU1ZkOo/edit?usp=sharing Thanks, Dave On Fri, Jul 3, 2015 at 2:07 AM, Dave Corley davecor...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, Recently Minister Howlin launched another public consultation on June 15th with regards to the strategy around Irelands Open Data Initiative.

I hope many of you will take this opportunity to contribute to this as the process around setting up open data from a government perspective is at a crucial stage where the decisions made over the next few months will likely be the foundation for things to come for many years and there's a lot of good data sitting on govt. servers that I would hope we could make use of down the road. The response is due no later than July 15th so I would like to leave this run for the next week to 10 days, make any changes suggested through your comments / feedback and then share a final draft at which point, anyone who wishes to, can add their name as a contributing author, before finally submitting it on or around the 14th July. It should be noted that the consultation is open for anyone to provide feedback so if you wish to submit a response personally you can do that too.

Hi, RobJN asked me to forward his diary post to this list: http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/RobJN/diary/35372 They are thinking of setting up an osmf UK/gb local chapter. Since we're setting up an Isle of Ireland one, there's some overlap for Northern Ireland contributors. Consider replying to his survey, whichever set of local chapters you feel like adhering to. -- Vincent Dp ___ Talk-ie mailing list Talk-ie@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ie

Nitpicking here, but... Another example is the text descriptions of Electoral Districts (ED) (SI 12 and 13 of 1968) for Dublin City and County... Shouldn't this be Electoral Divisions?
